Artificial bee colony ABC optimisation algorithm is relatively a recent and simple population-based probabilistic approach for global optimisation over continuous and discrete spaces. It has reportedly outperformed a few evolutionary algorithms EAs and other search heuristics when tested over both benchmark and real world problems. ABC, like other probabilistic optimisation algorithms, has inherent drawback of premature convergence or stagnation that leads to the loss of exploration and exploitation capability of ABC. Therefore, in order to find a trade-off between exploration and exploitation capability of ABC algorithm two modifications are proposed in this paper. First, a new control parameter namely, cognitive learning factor CLF is introduced in the employed bees phase and onlooker bees phase. Cognitive learning is a powerful mechanism that adjusts the current position of candidate solution by a means of some specified knowledge. Second, the range of ABC control parameter φ is modified. The proposed strategy named as balanced artificial bee colony BABC algorithm, balances the exploration and exploitation capability of the ABC. To prove efficiency of the algorithm, it is tested over 24 benchmark problems of different complexities and compared with the basic ABC. |
